NMC Specialty Hospital, Al Nahda provides Autologous Chondrocyte Implantation using contemporary cell-based cartilage repair techniques and evidence-based orthopaedic care. Founded in 2004, the JCI hospital is based in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, with 187 beds and services for domestic and international patients.

During ACI, a small sample of healthy cartilage is collected, and the chondrocytes are expanded under controlled laboratory conditions. The cultured cells are subsequently placed into the cartilage defect to support tissue repair. Before treatment, specialists assess cartilage damage, joint alignment, stability, imaging findings, and the patient's overall health.
